Lost music after changing country location

Hi, unfortunately, I changed my location and payment details before unsubscribing to Apple Music and now I can't access any music. Please advise how I can access my playlists again.

Thanks.

iPhone 8, iOS 15

song is not currently available in your country or region iphone 16 This is one of the reasons that I have never subscribed to apple music. Every time I get a new phone, songs get "grayed out" and I can not access them. This has happened since 2008 or 09. So frustrating. Even when I have apple itune receipts for the songs! Anyway, the new message is "song is not currently available in your country or region." My country listed in my phone is United States, so not sure why, again, Apple is taking away music that I have purchased. I have the music on 2 macs and my old iphone. Argh!! Any ideas for a fix?

Apple Music lost I recently updated my Apple Music subscription payment method and change countries from South Africa to UK. Upon changing and renewing my music has been lost - I did have all my music backed up and synced however when I attempted to sync my music it didn’t show up and now all my downloaded music and playlists have vanished.

Music becoming unavailable suddenly. After this recent software update 17.1.1, a few of the music I save in my music playlist have been “unavailable in your country/region”. But I can listen to it when it’s not saved in my playlist. And it’s a certain artist to the point that all of their songs I added to my playlist aren’t available. Is it something to do with business or is there some sort of error. I want my music back 😢

They’re gone for good, unfortunately. Changing regions is the same as canceling and starting over.
